A New Look for the New Year

Happy New Year!

Here's what you need to know for the start of 2015!

Things to mark in your calendars - 

All lessons and group classes resume the week of Monday January 12th.

Please refer to your Calendar of Events regularly and listen carefully for announcements in group and lessons over the next few months. Our group schedule is not as regular because of holidays (family day, March Break, Easter, etc.) Always be sure there is group and lessons before you make the drive out. All dates are also listed on this website here for your convenience.

Calendar of Events change: the last week of lessons will be June 1st -6th, and not May 25th-30th as it says on your calendar.

Next Recital is Sunday February 8th at 2:00 at Siloam United Church.

• We will be doing some Valentines/Music themed FUNdraising at this recital. More details on the importance of this fundraising and how it will benefit all of you coming soon!

Our Year End Recital is on Sunday May 3rd at 2:00 at Siloam United Church.

Upcoming Programs - 

Fiddle class will be returning mid-February. Registration will be available the end of January.

The Suzuki Association of America is offering a great opportunity for parents with a program called Parents as Partners. All you need is $10 and an e-mail address and from now until June, each week you will be e-mailed a new video featuring all sorts of Suzuki related topics such as practice tips, parent-child relationships, philosophy, listening, motivation and more. Some great Suzuki speakers are featured such as Bill Starr, Ed Kreitman and Ed Sprunger. If you haven't heard any of them speak before, the $10 is worth is just for their videos. Click here for more information from the SAA.

I've given this website a new look for a new year. Although I'm not much into setting resolutions, I do take advantage of this time of year to make changes where I think change is needed. The first thing about changing parts of your life is starting small, being specific, being consistent and knowing that it's okay if it doesn't work out. Not all change is meant to be. The point is that we try and we continue to try. We learn from trying.

I look forward to helping everyone learn and achieve their goals for 2015 and to continue living the Suzuki lifestyle!
